What amount of heat absorbs 50 g of steel (ce = 0.115 cal / g. ° C) that
does its temperature vary by 25 ° C?
Answer:
143.75cal
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of steel = 50g
Specific heat capacity of the steel = 0.115cal/g°C
Temperature = 25°C
Unknown:
Amount of heat = ?
Solution:
The amount of heat to cause this temperature change is dependent on mass and specific heat capacity of the substance.
Amount of heat = m C (ΔT)
m is the mass
c is the specific heat capacity
ΔT is the temperature change
Now insert the parameters and solve;
Amount of heat = 50 x 0.115 x 25
Amount of heat = 143.75cal
The moment the question mention Diamond, suspect Carbon as the answer. (1) element: C, carbon. Atomic number: 12 (double check on periodic table). (2) Not sure what does the question means, but I guess in the first shell, there will be 2 electrons and the 2nd shell will have 8 electrons (may need to explain it based on electron configuration involving s,p,d and f orbitals). (3) MOST undergoes sharing of electron so they form covalent bond with non metals.
Answer:
Paraffin wax (or petroleum wax) is a soft colorless solid, derived from petroleum, coal or shale oil, that consists of a mixture of hydrocarbon molecules containing between twenty and forty carbon atoms. It is solid at room temperature and begins to melt above approximately 37 °C.
